Kedaara Capital is a Mumbai-headquartered private equity firm that pursues both control and minority investment opportunities across India. The firm integrates operational expertise with investment capabilities to build value in portfolio companies over the medium term, distinguishing itself through a hands-on approach to value creation.
The firm embeds ESG considerations systematically throughout its investment lifecycle, from initial screening and exclusion criteria through diligence, ongoing monitoring, and exit reviews. This integration reflects a structured approach to identifying and managing material risks rather than applying ESG as a superficial overlay. During the oversight phase, Kedaara works alongside portfolio company management and external consultants to strengthen governance mechanisms, including audit functions and risk management practices.
Investment decisions incorporate evaluation of environmental and social risks as integral to operational and financial performance. The firm's commitment to monitoring portfolio companies through continuous engagement and ESG assessments positions environmental and social considerations as drivers of long-term value rather than compliance obligations.
